GENERAL MAINTENANCE
1. Wipe down all areas in the sweat path with a damp cloth after each workout.
2. If a squeak, thump, clicking or rough feeling develops the main cause is most likely one of two reasons:
a. The hardware was not sufficiently tightened during assembly. All bolts that were installed during assembly need
to be tightened as much as possible. It may be necessary to use a larger wrench than the one provided if you
cannot tighten the bolts sufficiently. 90% of calls to the service department for noise issues can be traced to loose
hardware.
b. If squeaks or other noises persist, check that the unit is properly leveled. There are 2 leveling pads on the front and
2 leveling pads on the back of the unit.
STEP RAIL AND CARRIAGE MAINTENANCE
Dirt and dust can accumulate on the pedal carriage components causing a rough feel which means the
rails and wheels most likely need cleaning.
1. Remove mast cover and center cover.
2. Firmly press in at the bottom of the small mast cover at the front and rear and pull up.
a. Firmly press in at the top of the main cover near the top and pull up on the center cover. Repeat this process at all
four corners of the cover.
b. Slide the mast and center covers up the mast tube. Tie a rag around the tube and let the covers rest on it so they
stay in place.
3. Move the pedals so one is all the way forward. Clean the wheels and rails using a rag and alcohol.
4. Replace the covers when done.
